Building on TONX’s success in the API and security space, KTON is positioned to capture the $6.12 billion TON liquid staking market opportunity.
KTON allows users to stake TON while receiving $KTON, unlocking liquidity without sacrificing staking rewards. Unlike existing solutions that often concentrate risk or lack robust standardization, KTON provides institutional-grade security tailored for family offices, trusts, and exchanges. Users can start staking with as little as 1 TON, and there is no lock-up period.
Unlocking TON’s $6.12B Liquid Staking Market Potential
Liquid staking has transformed blockchain ecosystems with Lido Finance dominating Ethereum’s LST market at $30B TVL. KTON aims to capture similar potential in TON’s nascent LST market, currently valued at $377M.
“Our research reveals TON’s LST ratio matches Solana at 10% of staked tokens, yet TON’s total staking rate is merely 13.7% versus Solana’s 69%, indicating a 5x growth potential. Furthermore, if TON’s LST ratio reaches Ethereum’s 36%, the market could surge 18X, unlocking an additional $6.12B in value,” said Dr. Awesome Doge, founder of TONX and KTON.
“KTON aims to bridge this gap by providing the infrastructure needed to unlock this liquidity and drive TON’s DeFi expansion.”
KTON’s staking service will unlock liquidity, enabling seamless integration with leading TON native DEXs and protocols, and more DeFi giants which are entering TON like Ethena and Curve Finance. This offers TON users flexible and stable yield strategies through various DeFi opportunities while maintaining staking rewards.
“TONX’s triumph is a powerful testament to why KTON has solidified its place as a trusted pillar in the ecosystem,” said Howard Peng of TON Ventures.
TONXKTON Sets New Standards for TON Liquid Staking Infrastructure
KTON is addressing the critical challenges of existing liquid staking solutions, such as concentration risks and lack of standardization, by introducing a decentralized protocol with institutional-grade security.
To further enhance accessibility, KTON is launching a Telegram Mini App designed for the platform’s 950M users in a move to bridge DeFi adoption and mainstream accessibility. By integrating liquid staking directly within Telegram, KTON simplifies the process, ensuring that anyone can participate with ease.
This innovative approach positions KTON to drive the widespread adoption of TON blockchain technology, expanding its reach in the US market and globally.
The platform’s roadmap goes beyond staking rewards.
Following the launch of KTON V1, the planned upgrade will introduce a dual-token model featuring $KTON and a new governance token. This system allows $KTON holders to earn rewards while actively participating in KTON DAO governance.
